This is a simple but perennially recurring African story which must be read by women of all walks of life who have been cheated on or raped by chauvinistic men. It has contemporary relevance even in America.When you look at Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Edwards, (may she rest in peace), Sandra Bullock, O.J. Simpson’s wife (may she rest in peace), Scott Peterson’s wife (may she rest in peace), Oprah Winfrey, Maya Angelou and Elin Woods Nordegren and many others who are not as famous, you will see that cheating, rape, abuse and disrespect still rages in this God’s country.I am always drawn to a woman because she has some compassionate wisdom and tenderness which I first found in my mother and subsequently several other women. My mother is a woman, my sisters are women, my children are girls, and just as I hate my female relatives to be subjected to shame, disrespect, bias, sexual violence, domestic violence and painful divorce, so do I not want any female go through these.Most men are sexual aggressors. However, to me, the only sexual activity that doesn’t come with guilt is the one between the legal union of two people. Sex in the unmarried union, whether in the Western type of dating, or rape comes with guilt and consequences. No wonder there are so many failed marriages and broken homes.For us human beings, everything we do in truth, honesty, compassion and kindness makes us the genuine Homo sapiens that we should be.
